Morning live
I'm surprised to not find this compilation on IMDb. Actually, those DVDs are a best-of this show running for 5 hours of footage. There's no editing because it's a collage of a tons of bit. The menu is very long to load and as most French DVD, there aren't subtitles for french deafs or foreigners!
Right now, the show isn't "live" anymore and if the DVD are still funny, a lot of the show appeal is lost because it was made to be appreciated live: it was news, with music videos, with guests, panelists and gags. By the way, it has never been "Morning" for me either because i was never awake for 6-9 in the morning. I usually watched this on its rerun the afternoon on the satellite channel "Fun TV" while working for the exams to my actual job. Thus, i remember to laugh a lot and I thank all the production for that! They made me what i am today!
In my opinion, Youn and his buddies really reinvented humor in TV. It's not intellectual for sure but their trash is very jubilant: they did what no one before them done! In addition being some overgrown teens, they are also fine actors. Youn has really talent to play a lot of different characters! They are also good at songwriting because hits like "Stash-Stash" or "Fous ta cagoule" are good to listen and make laugh too!
Now, that i'm working and that i have to get up the morning, i wish i could find them again to start my day with a happy smile on my face!

Histoire(s) de la télévision
3 months after Bruno's death and the cancellation of ABCD, Les Nuls came back to NPA with a recorded fiction...For me, it's the best Nuls production because for one time, they deliver a fine package with a backbone: the TV history and the family dinner. The two settings are hilarious (the sexual life of elephants!) and innovative, totally enhanced by a deep knowledge of visual language: the family TV focusing attention, they can spoof any period of TV (black and white, color) and it looks like the real thing (Flipper the worm)... For sure, it's also for them and their fans a healthy way to go on after a tragic loss and the solidarity they show as a family is bigger than the TV...
So far the only thing i knew about the late Jim Valvano was that when my home basketball team CSP Limoges became European Champion under the coaching of Bozidar Maljkovic, medias said that it was the best coaching ever since this NCAA tournament 1983 won by Jim.
With this documentary, you have indeed a great resume of this NC state team winning all games in the last seconds. Beyond the athletic achievement, what's extremely good here is that you have the original footage of the games plus the gathering of the team decade later. It's just beautiful because you can touch what sports is about and especially basketball. It's an epic journey with teammates helping and believing and sharing a bond that lasts forever. They did something unique and they have this joy every day.
But, the documentary achieves greatness because it offers in parallel the biography of Jim who died from cancer at a young age. Born from Italian parents, he was proud of his roots and what a guy he was: funny, easy to talk, imaginative, caring and for sure, courageous: when cancer broke him down, he managed to get up when needed to deliver very moving speech and visiting his old players. And the big surprise was that all along, his best friend was Coach K, the best ever USA basketball coach (a winning streak of 83 winning games!) and you understand why: the duo had amazing beliefs, deep human fundamentals.
Honestly, I like Phil Jackson, Jordan and the Bulls. But Jim was like a divine shooting star and this documentary pays him an amazing homage and ranks as the best biopic ever, beyond sports and hoops. A must see to get your life back in track!
